FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically illustrating a warning condition adjusting apparatus in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 2 shows diagrams schematically illustrating parking directions of an ego vehicle including the warning condition adjusting apparatus of FIG. 1 , and FIG. 3 shows diagrams schematically illustrating detection information depending on the parking directions of the ego vehicle including the warning condition adjusting apparatus of FIG. 1 .

Referring to FIG. 1 , the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may include a radar module 110, a warning module 120, a storage unit 130 and a processor 140. The warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may be installed in a vehicle (an ego vehicle 100 and a target vehicle 200 of FIG. 2 ). Hereafter, the descriptions will be made under the supposition that the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 is installed in the ego vehicle 100 of FIG. 2 , for convenience of description.

The radar module 110 may be installed at one or more of the front, rear and/or sides of the ego vehicle 100, and detect the target vehicle 200 which is present at one or more of the front, rear and/or sides of the ego vehicle 100. The radar module 110 may transmit a radar signal to the target vehicle 200, receive a radar signal reflected from the target vehicle 200 in response to the transmitted radar signal, and transfer the received radar signal to the processor 140. The processor 140 may generate predetermined information using the radar signal received from the radar module 110.

The warning module 120 may serve to issue a warning to a driver who drives the ego vehicle 100. In an embodiment, the warning module 120 may issue a warning through various methods such as a visual method, an auditory method and a tactual method. In an embodiment, the warning module 120 may display a warning on an instrument panel of a driver seat, a head-up display, a navigation system, an integrated information display device or the like. In another embodiment, the warning module 120 may issue a warning through a speaker of the ego vehicle 100. In still another embodiment, the warning module 120 may warn the driver by vibrating a steering wheel of the ego vehicle 100 or tightening a safety belt. The warning module 120 may output a warning to such an extent that the driver of the ego vehicle 100 can recognize the warning, in response to a warning output signal from the processor 140.

The storage unit 130 may store various programs or data while interworking with the processor 140. The storage unit 130 may store a program required for the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 to output a warning depending on a rear cross collision risk. In an embodiment, the storage unit 130 may store reference axis (X-axis, Y-axis) information indicating a first direction as the direction in which the ego vehicle 100 is perpendicular parked. In another embodiment, the storage unit 130 may store reference detection information as a warning condition that can operate the RCCW system to output a warning. For example, the reference detection information may include a reference horizontal axis distance, a reference vertical axis distance, a reference horizontal axis velocity, a reference vertical axis velocity, a reference collision estimated time, a reference collision point and the like. When the determination result of the processor 140 indicates that information received from the target vehicle 200 satisfies the reference detection information, a warning may be outputted.

The storage unit 130 may also include a high-speed random access memory. The storage unit 130 may include one or more nonvolatile memory devices such as a magnetic disk storage device, a flash memory device and other nonvolatile solid-state memory devices. However, the scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the storage unit 130 may include a readable storage medium. For example, the storage unit 130 may include an EEP-ROM (Electronically Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory), but the scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The EEP-ROM may write and erase information under control of the processor 140, during an operation of the processor 140. The EEP-ROM may be a memory device that does not lose information stored therein but retains the information, even though power supply is cut off due to a power-off.

The processor 140 may generate detection information using information on the time at which the radar module 110 transmits a radar signal and information on the time at which the processor 140 receives a radar signal reflected from the target vehicle 200. The detection information may include one or more of horizontal distance information and vertical distance information from the ego vehicle 100 to the target vehicle 200, a horizontal axis velocity and vertical axis velocity of the target vehicle 200, a collision estimated time at which the target vehicle 200 will collide with the ego vehicle 100, a point where the target vehicle 200 collides with the ego vehicle 100 and an angle of the target vehicle 200.

The processor 140 may determine whether the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is a first or second direction, using traveling information of the target vehicle 200. The processor 140 may maintain a preset warning condition of the RCCW system when the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the first direction, and change the warning condition of the RCCW system when the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the second direction.

In the present embodiment, the processor 140 serving as a kind of CPU (Central Processing Unit) may provide various functions by driving control software stored in the storage unit 130. The processor 140 may include all kinds of devices capable of processing data, such as a processor. Here, ‘processor’ may indicate a data processing device which has a physically structured circuit to perform a function expressed as a code or command included in a program and is embedded in hardware. Examples of the data processing device embedded in hardware may include a microprocessor, a CPU, a processor core, a multiprocessor, an ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit), an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) and the like, but the scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

In the present embodiment, the processor 140 may include a determination unit 141, a change unit 142 and a compensation unit 143.

The determination unit 141 may compare the reference axis stored in the storage unit 130 to a radar axis generated through the radar signal reflected from the target vehicle 200 in response to the radar signal transmitted from the radar module 110. The determination unit 141 may determine that the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the first direction, when the radar axis and the reference axis are similar to each other, and determine that the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the second direction, when the radar axis and the reference axis are different from each other. The first direction may indicate that the ego vehicle 100 is perpendicular parked as illustrated in (a) of FIG. 2 , and the second direction may indicate that the ego vehicle 100 is parked in a non-perpendicular direction as illustrated in (b) of FIG. 2 . That is, in the present embodiment, the first direction may include the perpendicular direction, and the second direction may include the non-perpendicular direction (for example, an oblique direction or diagonal direction).

The change unit 142 may maintain the warning condition of the RCCW system, stored in the storage unit 130, when the determination result of the determination unit 141 indicates that the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the first direction, and change the warning condition of the RCCW system when the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the second direction.

Recently, parking spaces are designed in various manners. For example, the parking spaces may include not only a first-direction parking space illustrated in (a) of FIG. 2 , but also a second-direction parking space illustrated in (b) of FIG. 2 as in an expressway rest area. In general, the RCCW system is designed based on the first-direction parking space. Therefore, when the ego vehicle 100 is parked in the first direction, detection information may be almost similar to the reference detection information as illustrated in (a) of FIG. 3 . However, when the ego vehicle 100 is parked in the second direction, the detection information may be different from the reference detection information. Therefore, although an obstacle and/or the target vehicle 200 are present around the ego vehicle 100, no warning may be issued or a warning may not be issued on time but issued later. Furthermore, even when the ego vehicle 100 is parked in the first direction, the RCCW system may not actually perform a normal function because the rear of the ego vehicle 100 faces a wall surface in many cases. Therefore, the processor 140 may adjust the warning condition by analyzing the detection tendency of the radar module 110 on the parking in the second direction, thereby securing stability for the parking in the second direction.

In order to change the warning condition of the RCCW system when the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the second direction, the compensation unit 143 may calculate an entry angle θ at which the ego vehicle 100 enters a parking space in the second direction, with respect to the reference axis, and compensate for the detection information of the ego vehicle 100 by the entry angle θ, the detection information being included in the warning condition of the RCCW system, stored in the storage unit 130.

The compensation unit 143 may use Equation 1 below to calculate the entry angle θ at which the ego vehicle 100 enters the parking space, with respect to the reference axis.

$\begin{matrix} {{Entry}{{angle}(\theta)}{= {\tan^{- 1}\frac{V_{X}}{V_{Y}}}}} & \left\lbrack {{Equation}1} \right\rbrack \end{matrix}$

In Equation 1, V_(X) may represent the horizontal axis velocity of the target vehicle 200 with respect to the radar horizontal axis in the second direction, and V_(Y) may represent the vertical axis velocity of the target vehicle 200 with respect to the radar vertical axis in the second direction.

The compensation unit 143 may compensate for the detection information of the ego vehicle 100 by the entry angle θ, when the calculation of the entry angle θ of the ego vehicle 100 is completed. The compensation target may include the horizontal distance information X and the vertical distance information Y from the ego vehicle 100 to the target vehicle 200 and the horizontal axis velocity V_(X) and the vertical axis velocity V_(Y) of the target vehicle 200, among the pieces of detection information of the ego vehicle 100. The other pieces of detection information, for example, the collision estimated time at which the target vehicle 200 will collide with the ego vehicle, the point where the target vehicle 200 collides with the ego vehicle 100 and the angle of the target vehicle 200 may be calculated by the compensation target.

The compensation unit 143 may calculate compensation horizontal distance information X_(C) and compensation vertical distance information Y_(C) through Equation 2 below, based on the horizontal distance information X and the vertical distance information Y from the ego vehicle 100 to the target vehicle 200. Furthermore, the compensation unit 143 may calculate compensation horizontal axis velocity V_(XC) and compensation vertical axis velocity V_(YC) through Equation 2 below, based on the horizontal axis velocity V_(X) and the vertical axis velocity V_(Y) of the target vehicle 200.

$\begin{matrix} {{\begin{bmatrix} X_{C} \\ Y_{C} \end{bmatrix} = {\begin{bmatrix} {\cos\theta} & {{- \sin}\theta} \\ {\sin\theta} & {\cos\theta} \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} X \\ Y \end{bmatrix}}}{\begin{bmatrix} V_{XC} \\ V_{YC} \end{bmatrix} = {\begin{bmatrix} {\cos\theta} & {{- \sin}\theta} \\ {\sin\theta} & {\cos\theta} \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} V_{X} \\ V_{Y} \end{bmatrix}}}} & \left\lbrack {{Equation}2} \right\rbrack \end{matrix}$

When the compensation for the compensation target by the entry angle θ is completed, the change unit 142 may compensate for one or more of the other pieces of detection information, for example, the collision estimated time at which the target vehicle 200 will collide with the ego vehicle 100, the point where the target vehicle 200 collides with the ego vehicle 100, and the angle of the target vehicle 200, using the compensation horizontal distance information X_(C) and the compensation vertical distance information Y_(C) and the compensation horizontal axis velocity V_(XC) and the compensation vertical axis velocity V_(YC).

The change unit 142 may change the reference detection information, which is included in the reference warning condition of the RCCW system stored in the storage unit 130, into compensation detection information compensated for by the entry angle θ, or separately store the compensation detection information.

As the warning condition of the RCCW system is adaptively changed through the above-described operation according to the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100, it is possible to prevent an abnormal situation which may occur when the ego vehicle 100 is parked in an oblique direction, for example, a situation in which no warning of the RCCW system is issued or a warning of the RCCW system is delayed.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a warning condition adjusting method in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. Hereafter, the descriptions of contents overlapping the descriptions of FIGS. 1 to 3 will be omitted herein.

Referring to FIG. 4 , the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may determine whether the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the first or second direction, using the traveling information of the target vehicle 200, in step S410.

The warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may compare the reference axis stored in the storage unit 130 to a radar axis generated through a radar signal reflected from the target vehicle 200 in response to a radar signal transmitted from the radar module 110. The warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may determine that the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the first direction, when the radar axis and the reference axis are similar to each other, and determine that the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the second direction, when the radar axis and the reference axis are different from each other.

In steps S420 and S430, when the determination result indicates that the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the first direction, the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may maintain the preset warning condition of the RCCW system, stored in the storage unit 130.

In steps S440 and S450, when the determination result indicates that the parking direction of the ego vehicle 100 is the second direction, the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may calculate the entry angle θ at which the ego vehicle 100 enters the parking space in the second direction, with respect to the reference axis, through Equation 1 above.

In step S460, when the entry angle θ is completely calculated, the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may compensate for the detection information of the ego vehicle 100, included in the warning condition of the RCCW system, by the entry angle θ.

The compensation target may include the horizontal distance information X and the vertical distance information Y from the ego vehicle 100 to the target vehicle 200 and the horizontal axis velocity V_(X) and the vertical axis velocity V_(Y) of the target vehicle 200, among the pieces of detection information of the ego vehicle 100. The other pieces of detection information, for example, the collision estimated time at which the target vehicle 200 will collide with the ego vehicle 100, the point where the target vehicle 200 collides with the ego vehicle 100, and the angle of the target vehicle 200 may be calculated by the compensation target.

The warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may calculate the compensation horizontal distance information X_(C) and the compensation vertical distance information Y_(C) and the compensation horizontal axis velocity V_(XC) and the compensation vertical axis velocity V_(YC), using Equation 2 above, and compensate for one or more of the other pieces of detection information, for example, the collision estimated time at which the target vehicle 200 will collide with the ego vehicle, the point where the target vehicle 200 collides with the ego vehicle 100, and the angle of the target vehicle 200, using the compensation horizontal distance information X_(C) and the compensation vertical distance information Y_(C) and the compensation horizontal axis velocity V_(XC) and the compensation vertical axis velocity V_(YC).

In step S470, the warning condition adjusting apparatus 1 may change the warning condition of the RCCW system into a compensation warning condition.
